The debian-private mailing list leak, part 1. Volunteers have complained about Blackmail. Lynchings. Character assassination. Defamation. Cyberbullying. Volunteers who gave many years of their lives are picked out at random for cruel social experiments. The former DPL's girlfriend Molly de Blanc is given volunteers to experiment on for her crazy talks. These volunteers never consented to be used like lab rats. We don't either. debian-private can no longer be a safe space for the cabal. Let these monsters have nowhere to hide. Volunteers are not disposable. We stand with the victims.

Perhaps it would be good to not mention dwww yet.  The version in 1.3 is 
poorly documented, searching is slow, and it's frustrating to set up for 
some people.  I'm planning to do some major enhancements over the next few 
weeks -- so maybe it would be better to hype it up for Debian 2.0.

I like the rest of the description though - it's quite accurate.

Cheers,
